Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two decades between 1945 and 1965 saw some remarkable motor cars emerge from the new Rolls-Royce factory at Crewe. The Mark VI Bentley was the first model to be built entirely by Rolls-Royce, using a body supplied by Pressed Steel, although coachbuilt cars were still available. The Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn version followed in 1949, this and its Bentley sister both receiving 'big boot' bodies in 1952. Meanwhile the 120mph Continental appeared. The entirely new Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud and Bentley S-series, almost identical to each other, arrived in 1955, and from 1959 a V8 was installed. By their side, coachbuilt S-series Continentals continued. Original Rolls-Royce & Bentley 1946-65 is the essential companion to these cars. The aim of this book is to reveal, in words and color photographs, how the various models altered through the course of production. Drawing on factory records, parts lists, catalogs and other data, the author has provided a meticulous survey of the standard steel cars built at Crewe. Over 250 specially commissioned color photographs, showing the detail changes to these cars, accompany the authoritative text.

Download or read book Coachwork on Rolls-Royce and Bentley, 1945 - 1965 written by James Taylor and published by Herridge & Sons Limited. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rolls-Royce and Bentley relied upon standardised body designs after 1945, but for the next two decades both marques also supplied chassis frames separately, and it was possible to have these clothed with coachwork by bespoke coachbuilders like, for example, Mulliner, Park Ward and James Young in Britain, or Graber, Farina and Franay in Europe. Many buyers took this route, and this highly illustrated book bears witness to the wide variety of styles that were built in this fascinating period. Chassis number lists for each coachbuilder, both in Britain and overseas, identify their creations, to make this a comprehensive and essential companion for anyone interested in Rolls-Royce and Bentley in the postwar era. Coachwork on Rolls-Royce and Bentley, 1945-1965 joins the author’s recent work Coachwork on Derby Bentleys 1933-1940 in our list.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Crewe era of Rolls-Royce and Bentley motor cars has spanned more than 50 years, considerably longer then the previous Manchester and Derby periods, the production of luxury cars being resumed after the Second World War by Rolls-Royce and Bentley in their factory at Crewe, Cheshire, which had been built for the manufacture of Merlin aero engines and production figures of post-war cars have been most impressive. In view of the success of the company it is ironic that in mid-1998 the two marques should be sold to a pair of rival German manufacturers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998 Rolls-Royce celebrated the 60th anniversary of the opening of its Crewe factory, the home of the company's car production since World War II. This illustrated history celebrates Rolls Royce and Bentley cars and the company that produced them. Motoring writer Malcolm Bobbitt has brought together a varied collection of photos to create this visual account. The text explains the move of the company's car production from Derby to Crewe just after the war and takes the story through the successful 1950s and 1960s. He recalls the near bankruptcy of the company in the 1970s and its subsequent recovery, and finishes with a description of the company and its cars today in light of the 1998 sale to Volkswagen and the acquisition of the Rolls-Royce name by BMW. The author concentrates on the evolution of the characteristic models - the Bentley Mk VI and the R-Types, the Silver Wraith and Silver Dawn, the Silver Cloud and Silver Shadow and Silver Spirit - and he looks at the recent revival of the Bentley marque which recaptures the spirit of the cars' pre-war sporting history. The book also remembers the notable individuals who played a vital part in the creation of these famous vehicles, and it describes the company's organization and its meticulous methods of design, testing and construction.

Download or read book Bentley Mark VI & R-Type: Including the Bentley Continental and the Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn written by Martin Bennett and published by Dalton Watson Fine Books. This book was released on 2024-04-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive celebration of the Bentley Mk VI. The Bentley Mk VI was the best-selling model produced by Rolls-Royce Ltd when motor car production resumed at Crewe after World War II. This model later evolved into the R-Type and the Bentley Continental, as well as a Rolls-Royce counterpart, the Silver Dawn. The most radical post-war change was the fitting of standardized pressed steel bodies, though some 20% of Bentley Mk VIs and somewhat lesser percentages of the R-Type and Silver Dawn models, as well as 100% of the Bentley Continentals, continued the pre-war practice of having custom bodies from such coachbuilders as Park Ward, Hooper, and H.J. Mulliner. Comprehensive histories of these and other coachbuilders are included in this book, and all cars fitted with coachbuilt bodies are listed. This is a companion book to Martin Bennett's Rolls-Royce: the Post-War Phantoms IV V VI and Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith.

Download or read book Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud - The Complete Story written by James Taylor and published by The Crowood Press. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rolls-Royce company acquired Bentley Motors in 1931 and, although models continued to be produced with the Bentley name, they increasingly used many Rolls-Royce components. By the time the Silver Cloud and Bentley S were released in 1955, they were really differently badged versions of the same design. Yet the sporting tradition of the Bentley marque was upheld with the exotic Continental models that were derived from them. The Silver Cloud family represents a pinnacle for the Rolls-Royce company. The cars all had and still have a very special presence, and the standard saloons have an unsurpassed elegance and rightness of line. The special-bodied cars, meanwhile, are reminders of an age when the skill of the best coachbuilders was something deserving of universal admiration. With around 190 photographs, this book features: The story of the design and development of the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud and Bentley S Type; A look at the production development of these cars between 1955 and 1965; An examination of the Bentley Continental models that were derived from Silver Cloud and S Type design; The history of the Phantom V and Phantom VI limousine chassis introduced in 1959 and destined to last until 1990; Full technical specifications, including paint and interior trim choices; Production figures and chassis codes and finally, a chapter on buying and owning one of these wonderful classic cars.
